I really enjoyed this slightly different historical romance than what I've been reading. While it is set in England, the two main characters are Americans which gives them different ideals and values to their British counterparts. Definitely read the prequel [b:Rebel 57004021 Rebel (Outlawed #0.5) Sally Malcolm https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1612827669l/57004021.SY75.jpg 89190996] first as it establishes these characters and the stakes that makes King's Man so compelling. This is a so-called “second chance” romance story so you hit the ground rooting for them especially after their sweet friendship in the prequel story. While there are plenty of politics and historical events mentioned in this book, Malcolm doesn't dwell on them which is good. I'm not here for a history lesson on the American Revolution. However, it does set the tone nicely and, like I mentioned, gives it a unique feel to most other M/M romances set in the 1700s.
